NOMINEE, 'Outstanding Original Songs', Green Room Awards 2024
Hey. I’m FRANKLY and I just like making art and sharing it with other curious humans, often in rooms so small you can tell if I tweezed my chin that day. I’ve done comedy, lots of cabaret…now, I’m getting back to my roots with a new hour of “normal songs.”
A bit Wilco meets Lana Del Rey…kinda Beck meets Lily Allen…ISLANDS is a work of dry-reads, floating melodies and catchy choruses.
If you like intimate gigs and straight-shooting lyricists, animated performers or strange women - take a punt on me!
If you hate it, I’ll buy you a beer.

JUDGE'S PICK Melbourne Fringe Festival 2023
WINNER Frank Ford Award 2022
WINNER 'Best Emerging Artist' (weekly) Adelaide Fringe Festival 2019
Presented by: FRANKLY
Cult favourite of the Australian Cabaret scene, FRANKLY is “brilliant” (SeeDoEatReview) and “weird” (The Clothesline) with “a stage presence beyond her years” (Melb Fringe).
Loved by audiences for her lively stage presence, intelligent songwriting, and ability to absorb you in her strange internal world, FRANKLY’S left-of-field approach to everyday ideas makes her a performer that’s as relatable as she is memorable.
FRANKLY broke into the East End live music scene whilst in still high school, developing her provocative lyrical style before making her cabaret debut in 2017. Since then she has self-produced 9 original works across different festivals, collecting a loyal following, awards and industry praise.
She lives in Melbourne because the tap water is better.
